Shakira Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 [quote name='Caleb279' timestamp='1282246122' post='2423367'] Look at my sig I'm glad she switched to red, but seriously. All colored text is dumb and should stop. [/quote] [b][color="#FF0000"]I like the red, it matches my sig and avatar.[/color][/b] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJ Scott Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 [font="Comic Sans MS"]Hey guys! Look at me! Yeah, that's right! Comic Sans!

[/quote] Feel free to ignore posts like that. If someone feels the need to spruce up their text to draw more attention to it, chances are they're compensating for the fact that it's not very interesting to begin with. I speak from experience.

What will the op do to his children once he sees this? No but seriously, use color all you want just try to keep it in the visible spectrum.

Ashoka the Great Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 At first I was annoyed at having to highlight text that was difficult to read. Then I realized that most of the time there was nothing worth reading, so I stopped highlighting. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
